Jimmy Butler Leads the Warriors to a Thrilling Win Over the Grizzlies

Butler and Curry shine in the Play-In and secure the 7th seed in the West.

Jimmy Butler came to Golden State to shake things up… and that’s precisely what he’s doing. With 38 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists, Butler stole the spotlight and led the Warriors to a 121-116 win over the Memphis Grizzlies in the NBA Play-In Tournament. Stephen Curry added 37 points and was clutch in the final seconds.

With this victory, the Golden State Warriors secure the seventh seed in the Western Conference and will face the Houston Rockets in the first round of the playoffs, starting this Sunday.

For those who closely follow the world of sports betting, this result shook up the predictions. As always in the Play-In, NBA 1st Half Lines can bring surprises or not, and Butler proved there’s always room for unexpected heroes.

“Playoff Jimmy” shows up when he’s needed most.

Since arriving at the trade deadline, Jimmy Butler has been nothing short of impressive. This was his second straight game with over 30 points and his best performance since putting on a Warriors jersey. Steals, dunks, threes, and leadership — he did it all.

Curry, although tightly defended by Memphis, nailed clutch threes and hit 4 free throws in the final 5 seconds to close the game.

And of course, with performances like these from their two stars — the franchise icon Curry and the new arrival Butler, whose impact is proving to be game-changing — the good momentum, the NBA 2nd Half Lines , and the Warriors are shaping up to be a real threat to anyone in the playoffs.

What went wrong for the Grizzlies?

Desmond Bane scored 30 points, and Ja Morant added 22 despite twisting his ankle. Zach Edey also played a key role with 14 points and 17 rebounds. But it wasn’t enough. A 5-second inbound violation in the final seconds crushed Memphis’ chances. They’ll now fight for their season against the winner of Mavericks vs. Kings.

Bettors should stay sharp because in games like these, everything can change, especially with players like Butler going full beast mode. In these matchups, NBA Playoffs Odds truly depend on who steps up when it counts.
